Sunday, June 7th, 2020
Gibson EH-100 19401941 Vintage Tube Pre-War Amplifier Amp Combo 80y. Not perfect, check out the pics. They show it all. From the birth of amplified guitar. I think the condition is remarkable considering it’s age. This amp is a surviving piece of electric guitar history. Tube layout in pic. Last variation of the EH-100 before the war. This model cabinet has a separate amp and 10 field coil speaker box [latches together on the sides]. Dimension is 15″x12″x8 when stacked. Speaker box can be rotated around and latched to the amp base for controls on the front or even moved a foot or so away. This example has retained it’s original brown fabric covering and original handle. Gibson logo is very nice. Note pictures for condition. A few nicks and such in cabinet covering and amp chassis. This amp has 2 instrument inputs and one mic input. The volume knob controls the mic input only. The mic input has more gain and is preferred for guitar, eh? Gives guitar some attack and growl. This mic input sound is very desirable on the vintage tube amps of this era. Has been tuned up 10 years ago and up-dated with 3-prong plug for safety. Has been in storage more or less since then. Recommend having it checked by amp tech before using. Tubes are finicky compared to solid state. But the tone of vintage pre-war tube amps is unique. It’s 80 years old. Let me say this again, it’s 80 years old. When you judge it’s condition, please remember that. This amp was always cared for and shows no abuse. Never left in a wet garage or basement. It is ready to play or be displayed in a collection or museum. To be honest, I don’t know really what the market value of this amp is. I have looked at other images of this amp on Google, and this one, is by far the best looking. You be the judge. If I’ve put too high a price on it, let me know and give me your best offer. This amp needs a new home. So make your offer. The item “Gibson EH-100 19401941 Vintage Tube Pre-War Amplifier Amp Combo 80y. O Survivor” is in sale since Friday, May 22, 2020.
